Backup Question -- Difference between rsync and hotcopy

I'm backing up an FSFS repository that is large (100GB+) and heavily
used by geographically dispersed groups so there's no obvious time to
schedule a backup when the repository is not being accessed. I'd like to
do hot copies while the repository is in use but I am concerned about
whether any transactions taking place during the backup could be
corrupted. Is there any functional difference between hotcopy and rsync
either with the resulting backup repository or how open files are handled?
